Differences in CT characteristics of survivors and nonsurvivors. The mean time from symptom onset to initial CT, growth index of haematoma volumes of total and intraparenchymal haematoma on baseline CT, and the early presence of intraventricular haemorrhage and its volume were strongly associated with fatal outcome. Values are expressed as mean (SD) or percentages.
